After watching sermons online during covid19 closures we travelled an hour from Kitchener to worship in person with this church family and were not disappointed! We have never felt more welcome in a church ever! What a pleasure to meet such friendly people. We will be back September 2021. Update 1 year later… We rarely miss an opportunity now to worship with our church FAMILY! GBC is a congregation of people spanning over 4 generations who have rich historical roots, relevance and spiritual maturity all the way thru to younger newcomers of the Christian faith who have an upbeat spiritual approach and some who are questioning. This church is PASSIONATE about exemplifying their purpose ‘to make Jesus known and to show the love of Christ to those around them in all they do.’ AMEN!!! We are pleased to call this church HOME now and look forward to deepening our relationships with those who attend and invite people in the Simcoe community to visit and worship with us October 2022.
Today, I visited Grace Baptist Church in Simcoe. The parking lot was nearly full, and as I came in, I was warmly welcomed and handed a bulletin. The church was quite full; maybe 50-60 people, even using the balcony upstairs. The chairs were comfortable, and the band played late 90’s Christian rock. Then Pastor Mike Holt took the pulpit, and things began to shift. The readings were focused on Colossians 2, which, while dense reading, are all about warnings against false prophets. Pastor Mike Holt began using the text to warn against “the false teachings of science”. He said “this is something we heard constantly during the pandemic” and that it was “spiritual warfare”. He went on to tell how he had been so sick and week this past week that he had been forced to lie on the couch for days. “But God.” He apologized to the congregation for his voice. During communion, seeming to forget his mic is on, his coughs reverberate through the church. My mask is ON. After communion, they sing another song, and dismiss. A lady rushes up to me, introduces herself as one of the deacons’ wives, warmly welcomes me, begins to interrogate me in that very churchy way do you live in the area? and asks if I’ll be coming back. I attempt to untangle myself from her politely, but she’s insistent. “Are you visiting? Are you looking for a church home?” I told her that it is unlikely that I’ll be returning. She doesn’t let go. “May I ask why not? Your parents live in the area, right?” Dear readers; I let this poor woman have it. I said: “Frankly, I was pretty shocked by your pastor. Everyone has been so nice and friendly. But what he was spouting from the pulpit? I’m disgusted, honestly. Colossians is all about false teachings; and he’s up here DOING it.” Her jaw drops, but she doesn’t say anything. So I continue: “He’s using scripture to back up his own biases against science, and it’s disgusting. By his own admission, he’s sick, and yet he’s up here coughing all over his mic and the communion plate. How is that ok?!” Some middle aged dude has come up to eavesdrop in the background, but quickly realizes he doesn’t want any part of this, and turns away. She gets quiet and goes “I understand. I’ll be sure to relay this to the pastor.” I replied “I sincerely hope you do”, and got out of there. TL;DR: went to a church with an actively sick pastor who uses scripture to argue against science. 1 Star, do not recommend.
